It was the emperor's belief that only In Washington would the ne gotiators be free from the unsolicited In terference, of neutral powers. Text of Japan's Answer. The following Is the text of the Japanese reply to President Roosevelt's Identic note to Japan and Russia on the subject of negotiations for peace: The imperial government has given to the suggestions of the president of the United States embodied In the note handed to the minister for foreign affairs by the United States minister on the 9th Inst., very seriously considera tion to which, because of its source and because of Its Import, it Is Justly entitled. Desiring in the Interest of the world as well as Japan the re-establishment of peace with Russia on terms and conditions that will fully guarantee Its stability, the Imperial government, will, in response to the suggestions of the president, appoint plenipotentiaries of Japan to meet the plenipotentiaries of Russia at such time and place as may be found to be mutually agreeable and convenient for the purpose of negotiating and concluding terms of peace directly and Indirectly between ths two belllgrent powers. President Is Congratulated. President Roosevelt received at today's meeting of the cabinet the congratulations of the cabinet members on his success In bringing 'the combatants In the far east Into touch on the terms of peace. The ontroversy beteween Russia and Japan were discussed formally, but no details not already known were disclosed. Russians Discuss Situation. ST. PETERSBURG, June 16. The an nouncement that Emperor Nicholas has ac cepted the resignation of his uncle, Orand Duke Alexis, as high admiral, created a great sensation when it became known to day, but the announcement came too late for comment In the morning papers. Commenting on ths selection of Wash ington as the place of meeting for the peace plenipotentiaries, the Novoe Vremya calls upon Russian diplomacy to prepare to struggle seriously and not repeat the drifting policy which the Russian diplomats followed before the war, to decide what Russia wants and to act accordingly. v The Russ dwells on the necessity for se lecting the ablest men available to repre sent Russia at the Washington meeting, "since they may have to conclude a peace which will determine for many years Rus sia's position In the far east." Tho Boerse Gazette demands that men representing "new" and not old Russia shall be sent, and adds: The powers are already expressing fears that Russia and Japan will arrive at a rupprouuhment which will decide the des tiny of eastern Asia. These fears should be a powerful Instrument in the hands of the Russian plenipotentiaries. Ths Llstok says the world formerly mani fested alurm at the "Russian advance" eastward, but now seems Indifferent to "Japan's advance" westward through Corea and Manchuria. "In 1SSS," the paper continues, "Germany, Franco and Russia protested against Japan exploiting China, "Today no power comes forward to stay Japan's victorious march. Russia stands alone and a peace may be forced upon It which will be prejudicial to the Interests of Europe." Ths latest news from the front indicates that the rainy season Is beginning sooner than usual. Already heavy storms have occurred and If the downpours continue the military operations necessarily will come ta a standstill without an armistice, a state of affairs which will last long enough for the plenipotentiaries to meet There Is some talk that Foreign Minister Lamsdorff himself may be one of the pleni potentiaries. Count Tolstoi, In an Interview published In ths Russ today, praises the United States' tender of Its good offices and Rus sia's consent to negotiate, but finds fault with ths whole reform movement, pro claiming that getting back to the soil and sharing the land among the peasants is the only panacea for Russia's political ills. Requiem Mass for Dead. A requiem mass will be celebrated to morrow at the naval chapel for the repose of Vie souls of ths officers and other mem bers of the crew of the battleship Alexander III, who the admiralty announces went down to a man In the battle of the Sea of Japan. There was only one survivor of each of the complements of the battleships Borodino and Navarln. The prophetlo words of Captain Bukhvastoft of the Alex ander II, at a dinner to his officers before their departure for the far east, are now recalled. He said: "Of one thing I am sure we will all die and not surrender." Undeterred by the prospects of peace ne gotiations, Brigadier General Thomas H. Barry and the other American attaches will proceed to Manchuria after being re ceived In audience by the emperor. The officers believe ths opportunities for ob servation and Information will be even more fruitful Immediately after the sus pension of hostilities than In war time. ' Chicago Wants Meeting;. CHICAGO. June 16. A movement to have the peace negotiations between Russia and Japan take place In Chicago, should a change from Washington be desired, was Inaugurated today. The Illinois Manufac turers' association, which represents $1,000, 000,000 of invested capital and employs 600, 000 men, took the initiative by asking the governor of Illinois and mayor of Chi cago to Join in extending an Invitation. Following is a letetr that John M. Glenn, seoretary of the Manufacturers' associa tion, sent to Mayor Dunne today giving the project definite form: , Hon. Edward F. Dunne, Mayor, Chicago, 111.: Dear Sir The dispatches announcing that Washington has been selected as the meeting place of the peace plenipotentiaries of Russia and Japan Indicate that there is fear that the weather in tho capital city in August will be excessively warm and that the commission will have to seek some northern city as a retreat. It is respectfully suggested that you re quest President Roosevelt, on behalf of this city, to extend to the commission an invitation to hold Its meetings here. ' it is tnougnt to be especially appropriate that Chicago should be the place selected, as it Is in the heart of ths greatest manu facturing district In the world and its manufacturers are represented In every corner of the earth for trade. While our commercial spirit Is strong and our desiro for business keen, we know there Is a higher aim In life than mere commercialism, and want to be on friendly relations with tho people of all nations. We believe if you will extend this In vitation you will encompass that spirit which prompted President Roosevelt, as representative of the American people, to take up the peace negotiations. No official action has been taken by tho Illinois Manufacturers' association regard ing this matter, but I am confident ths manufacturers of Illinois will take pleasure In doing all that they can to make the city's hospitality most cordial. We have asked Governor Deneen, on be half of the great state of Illinois, to Join with you in extending the Invitation. Yours very truly, JOHN M. GLENN. Seoretary. Mayor Dunne tonight declared that he would not at present extend an invitation to the Japanese and Russian commission ers to come to Chicago to escape the heat. "They have Just selected Washington," said tho mayor, "and It would not be proper to ask them to come here until thay have signified a desire to change their meeting place. When that time comes I shall be glad to offer Chicago and do all that is possible to entertain thera la ths proper way." Suicide at Cantrtl. CANTRIL, la.. June 14. (Special.)

JAP STRATEGY BEWILDERS UNEVITCH His Army Is Completely Enveloped by m Line One Hundred Miles Long, Tfcat Is Gradually Clos ing; In. LONDON, June 17. The practical cer tainly now that peace negotiations cannot begin for another month leads to the con viction that another battle will be fought In the interval. According to the Daily Telegraph's Tien Tsin correspondent, a Japanese forward movement has already commenced In spite of the rainy season. The Dally Telegraph's Tokio correspond ent gives an Interesting idea of the situa tion from a correspondent who is said to be in a good position to know the actual facts. This Correspondent says that the principal Russian depot Is at Gunshu pass, whence many light railroads are being con structed northward to facilitate retreat. Lieutenant General Llnevltch, bewildered by the strategy of the Japanese, Is making repeated reconnaissance and throwing out Innumerable scouts. Nevertheless at the present moment, the correspondent says, all his army Is completely enveloped. The Japanese army has made a circle 100 miles in circumference around Llnevltch and is gradually closing In. The Japanese mili tary correspondent of the Morning Post says the Russian evacuation of Omoso shows that General Kawamura's "army of the Yalu," despite the difficulties met over a mountainous country, has arrived in time to synchronize with the move ments of the other Japanese armies and the correspondent adds stirring events are Imminent. Japanese Burn Stores. BT. PETERSBURG, June 16. General Llnevltch tn a dispatch to the emperor dated June 15 reports that a Russian turn ing movement forced the Japanese to retire from Iulantlza June 11 after burning their supplies. Another Russian force June 12 advanced from the valley of the Txln river to the village of Vanloungow pushing back the Japanese advance posts. The same day the Russian cavalry occupying Nanshantchenz retired slightly northward. Russian Ship Out of Coal. SAIOON, Cochin-China, June 16. The Russian auxiliary cruiser Kouban, for merly the Hamburg-American line steamer Augusta Victoria, has arrived off this port and asked to be supplied with coal suffi cient to reach the nearest Russian port Its request Is under consideration. The Kouban is fitted with a wireless telegraph apparatus and carries sixteen guns of small caliber. The Kouban did not participate in the battle of the Sea of Japan, having been detached from the Russian fleet to reconnolter the east coast of Japan as far as Yokohama. On returning It learned of ths disaster to Vice Admiral Rojestvensky and steamed to Cape St. James, near here. Army Stores In Moscow Burn. MOSCOW, June 16.

President Frank McArdle of the International Association of Foundrymen has announced that If the employers In New York and New Jersey where his men are now on strike, do not grant an Increase of 26 cents a day he will extend the strike to the entire country, in volving many thousand men. Work at the foundries here and in New Jersey is at a standstill. "Foundrymen In Omaha declare there Is not the slightest evidence here of dissatis faction among their men. They are getting 82 cents an hour and It is doubted whether, if called out under a general order of this kind, they would go. Probably 100 men would be subject to such an order here, said one of the foundrymen. Locaa Will Celebrate. LOQAN, la., June 18. (Special.)

Paul railroad SHOT AT THE BUREAUCRATS President Appoints Commission to Revise Business Methods of Departments. HE SAYS TOO MANY LETTERS ARE WRITTEN Requires Economical and Effective Work in the l.lKfct of Hest Modern Commercial Practice, WASHINGTON. JunV 16. The president has appointed a committee of five to re port to him on Improved methods of doing the public business In the various bureaus and departments. In a letter addressed to Charles II. Keep, assistant secretary of the treasury. Presi dent Roosevelt says: You are hereby designated as chairman of a committee to consist, In- addition to yourself, of the following four gentlemen: Frank H. Hitchcock, assistant postmaster general; Lawrence O. Murray, assistant secretary of commerce and labor; James R. Garfield, commissioner of corporations, and Oifford Plnchot, forester in the De partment of Agriculture, who are to in vestigate and find out what chanses are needed to place the conduct of the executive Dusiness or the government in all its branches on the most economical and ef fective basis In the light of the best mod ern business practice. Salaries shiinlrl bA rnmmenniirfltA with the character and market value of the ser vice performed and uniform for similar service In all departments. The existence of any method, standard, custom or practice Is no reason for its con tinuance When a better Is offered. There Should he systematic Interrlennrt- mental co-operation In the use of expert or technical knowledge. The business methods of the different departments should be substantially uniform. In the adoption of methods and the performanoe of work every step which is not clearly Indispensa ble should be eliminated. Too Mnch Letter Writing. A resolute effort should be made tn se cure brevity in correspondence and the elimination of useless letter writing. There is a type of bureaucrat who believes that his entire work, and that the entire work of the government should be the collecting of papers In reference to a case, comment ing with eager minuteness on each and cor responding with other officials in reference thereto. These people really care nothing for tho case, but only for the document in the case. In all branches of the srov- ernment there is a tendency greatly to in crease unnecessary and largely peYfunc tory letter writing. In the army and navy the, increase of paper work is a serious menace to the efficiency of fighting officers, who are often required by bureaucrats to spend time In making reports which they should spend In Increasing the efficiency of the battleships or regiments under them. As regards this matter you will please confer with the assistant secretaries of the war and navy departments and re quest them to submit to me a scheme for doing away with the evils referred to. In tne civil departments the abuse of letter writing amounts not merely to the waste of time of the government servant re- sponsioie tor it, out also tne impeding of public business. 1'lease consider also the matter of en forcing accountability for property. It is pointed out that the committee's work is not to discover Irregularities or to criticise the business of any office or in dividual, but to examine business methods as outlined. Yellow Fever on the Isthmus. Governor Magoon In a cablegram to the Isthmian Canal commission reports three new cases of yellow fever and one death on the isthmus, as follows: Matias Matomoia, aged 24, laborer, Pan ama; Michael Brosnan, American, aged 35, timekeeper, Empire; B.

An official communication from Governor Magoon to Colonel Gorgaa, chief sanitary officer on the canal' sones, assures the lat ter of every possible assistance In the ef fort to Improve sanitary conditions on the Isthmus and to render the sone more healthful. He says: , I know I voice the rarn.al the president and the secretnrv nt in saying that yellow fever must be eradicated una proper sanitation accomplished ir It Is within the power of human endeavor.

BILLS AGAINST FIVEPACKERS Proposed Indictments at Chicago Are Prepared by the Vnlted States Attorney. CHICAGO, June 16. Proposed Indict me its against officials of at least five packing firms were said to have been presented to the members of the federal grand Jury by District Attorney Morrison for consideration today. A report was Current that the Indict ments had practically been voted by the Jury. From a dozen to forty Indictments were today generally expected, as a close to in quiries which have lasted since March, bringing in scores of witnesses and occu pying the district attorney's office almost exclusively for three months. Ths charges are conspiracy, violation of the anti-trust laws, perjury, subordination of perjury and Intimidation of witnesses.

The lat ter refers to the cases where the wives of some of the packing firms' employes who left the city were placed under bond. There has also developed a serious conflict among the packers themselves. On re sulting Intimations of alleged treachery the government officials are said to count on producing testimony not obtainable except by some one turning state's evidence. DIPLOMAS GIVEN THE CLASS (Continued from First Page.) Ject In her oration on "Oom Paul Kruger," whom she descrilwd as the doer of as heroic deeds as any ever achieved. "It is suf ficient to know," observed Miss Rolofson, "that he wore his life away struggling to free a peoplo that was oppressed. He was one of the simplest, stanchest, truest souls of this or any other century. The chief quality for which I would have you admire and remember Paul Kruger is his unswerv ing patriotism. He did not falter in de feat." Miss Georgia Ellsberry played a piano solo of her own composition called "School Memories," written and dedicated to the class of 19U6. Both the piece and lis execu tion were admirable. Florence DeGraff sang a double number, "Good Night" and " 'Twaa April," both by Kevins, in a rMi soprano voice. Mr. J. Addison Mould sang "The Song of Hybrlus, the Cretan," very capably. Bryson on Hamilton. Mr. Lyman L. Bryson's oration dealt with Alexander Hamilton, whose life he traced through from the time he took a part in public affairs to his sad death. He told of Hamilton's remarkable sugaclty of statesmanship and his extraordinary feat with public credit and the treasury de partment of the Infant republic. To Hamil ton the orator attributed the ideas that re sulted In the permanency of our govern ment and Its strength, finding ground for this in the Hamiltonlan doctrine of Im plied power in tho constitution and fed eral government. Were Hamilton alive to day, Mr. Bryson asserted, he would be a popular idol, and in the career of tho statesman he attributed the impetus to his energy more to patriotism than ambition.

ORIGIN TEAMSTERS' STRIKE Grand Jury at Chicago Hears More Bensa tional Lridenoe, INSTIGATED BY RIVALS IN BUSINESS Statement by Witnesses that Com petitors of Ward A Co. Were Hack of the Walkout of the Drivers. CHICAGO, June 16. Although rumors of sensations In connection with the teamsters' strike were flying thick and fast today, there was little tangible evidence to sup port them. Assistant State's Attorney Folk declared today that the evidence given to the grand Jury yesterday was of so start ling a character that It could only be paral leled once In a thousand years. The testi mony given today, he said, maintained the Interest created by the evidence of yes terday. It is unofficially declared that the grand Jury today devoted much of Its time to listening to the statements of witnesses who declared that the strike against Mont gomery Ward A Co., was Instigated by rival business houses. Investigation Tnkea Wide Scope. State's Attorney Healy said tonight that the investigation has assumed a scope so extensive that the full session of the pres ent grand Jury which is to continue for the next two weeks will probably be finished before the Inquiry Is concluded, and that a special grand Jury will be necessary to dispose of tho routine cases now pending. The strike today was almost dormant. But for the sight of policemen and deputy Bherlffs riding on delivery wagons there would have been no evidence whatever that a strike was In progress. The business houses and express companies have reached almost a normal stage In their deliveries. There Is no present probability of peace. The employers' association Is resting and the teamsters' Joint council has decided to meet only every other day. Nothing was heard today about peace and there were no evidences of a strike on the streets. De liveries of goods In all lines are almost normal. While ihe statute of limitations may bar Indictments for conspiracy to settle strikes by the use of money, It is said to be certain that quite a number of Indictments for manslaughter will be re turned ngninst persons claimed to' be re sponsible for deaths resulting from riots due to the teamsters' strike. Two hundred brlckmnkers employed by the Chicago Brick company went out on strike today because lumber was deliv ered at the plant by nonunion drivers em ployed by the Lumbermen's association. JUDGE GRANTS INJUNCTION McPherson of Iowa Issues Tem porary Order In Suit of Hail roads of Missouri, KANSAS CITY, June 16.-Judge Smith McPherson of Red Oak, la., In the United States district court here today, Issued a temporary Injunction restraining the state warehouse commissioners of Missouri and the attorney general from enforcing the maximum freight rate law which went Into effect today, and against three Kansas City shippers, preventing the latter from claim ing penalties under the law. The Injunc tion was granted at the request of eight een railroads doing business In Missouri, who brought suit against the state officials on the ground that the rates provided in the ' new law are prohibitive and would amount to the confiscation of their prop erty. The Milt against the three Kansas City shippers is Intended to cover the ship pers of the state as a class and the order of the court against them will restrain them from bringing action against the rail ways under the law.
